Okay, it’s not that hot and I ate earlier so I wasn’t fasted. Why was today’s run so hard? I went out for a nice 3 miler without big hills, the weather was nice, humidity was low, and I was hoping for a nice easy run. Instead I got another slog, the 3 miles took 40 minutes, I ran super hot, and my heart rate went way up and stayed high (peaked at 182!) It feels like I’m going backwards.

I’m hoping that today I can at least avoid the exertion migraine, it’s really discouraged me from running.
